Trusts & Estates Litigation
Virtually no other kind of litigation invokes more emotion or is more personal than disputes that arise in the Trusts & Estates context. Family legacies, multi-generational businesses, and hard-earned fortunes often hang in the balance. Beck Redden has a longstanding history of handling the most complex disputes over some of the biggest estates in the country.
Beck Redden skillfully represents estate beneficiaries, heirs, trustees, fiduciaries, and trust beneficiaries when the stakes are the highest. These sensitive matters require clear focus during intense, emotionally-charged conflicts. Creativity is often required when exploring amicable resolutions. When the time for negotiation is over, there is no substitute for tenacious and experienced advocacy.
Our Trusts & Estates practice frequently assists clients with their most important matters:
- Challenges to the validity of wills, trusts, or other testamentary documents
- Issues of undue influence and late-life mental capacity
- Disputed asset distributions within a trust or estate context, and the control of related businesses
- Allegations of impropriety on the part of fiduciaries, trustees or estate representatives
When such important issues are on the line and a fight is imminent, Beck Redden can deliver the steady, experienced representation to see things through to the end.
